BUST THROUGH A RUNNING PLATEAU:

Running plateaus can happen if you are running too much, running too little, aren’t eating or sleeping enough, are stressed out, or have low levels of B12, ferritin (iron) and vitamin D, among other reasons. Laura & I discuss how to tell if you have truly hit a running plateau, how to address it, and how to run faster.
